TrAngela sent in a report from
Broadcasting and Cable that says that America's Sweetheart
Tim Gunn (from that reality fashion competition show that's dead to me) is getting his very own show on Bravo! Huzzah!
Tim Gunn's Guide to Style will profile Gunn as he solves people's fashion dilemmas by helping them get makeovers. While it's still unresolved whether Gunn will return to _______ for its fourth season, his own show debuts as he is set to publish a book on style and taste in May 2007.
Sadly, when one door opens another door closes, and it looks like Bravo has finally cancelled "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy":
Bravo's pulling the plug on Queer Eye after five seasons and four years on TV. The show's ten-episode fifth season, which debuts this summer, will be its last, the network was expected to tell television critics today at a presentation in Pasadena, Calif...
Queer Eye put Bravo on the map when it debuted to huge ratings and critical acclaim in 2003, but has fallen off in the ratings since then. Queer Eye: The Final Season will showcase for one last time the Fab Five making over deserving subjects.
But don't cry for them, Argentina, because at least Queer Eye cutie
Thom Filicia is getting his own home makeover show on the Style network called "Dress My Nest" beginning March 28, and I'm sure with all their charm and talent the others will have no trouble landing on their tv feet, except maybe
Jai, who has no discernible lifestyle skills and should go back to Broadway tapdancing or whatever his previous career was--although I would totally watch a tapdancing reality competition show called "Tap Into America" (yes, that
is a "Spinal Tap" shout out), or pehaps, "Top Tap" or even "Hoofin' It Up!" hosted by Jai and
Gregory Hines and featuring such judges as
Debbie Reynolds and
Ann Miller....Bravo, give me a production deal! These are pieces of
gold I'm giving away for free! Pure, solid gold!
In other Bravo news, appparently
Paula Abdul (!) is getting her own reality show called "Hey Paula" (pleasepleaseplease let it be a "Breaking
Bonaduce"-style document of her trainwreck of a personal life!)
and there's going to be a hairstyling competition show called "Shear Genius" hosted by Miss
Jaclyn Smith! Double huzzah!
(photo via the Jaclyn Smith gallery from the totally awesome "Charlie's Angels" Spanish fansite, which is worth a look for the great pictures)Bravo, you own my heart and my soul forever--or at least for the next tv-viewing season!
